Prescribed Performance Control of Air-breathing Hypersonic Vehicle with Propulsion System Constraint

Using prescribed performance control method, a control scheme of a air-breathing hypersonic vehicle (AHV) is designed with the uncertainties of the model and the propulsion system constraint. By prescribed performance, a improved performance function without the initial condition information is designed to transfer error constraint into stable control problem. In order to ensure the propulsion system work condition, the status of AHV must be restricted in a certain range. So the AHV control system with scramjet condition constraint is development by adaptive and prescribed performance control method. The uncertainties of AHV model are introduced to the control system. Finally, the performance of the designed AHV control system is achieved by several simulation results.
